AA - NWA: rainout

* NWA and Tulsa will try to make up the game Tuesday as part of a double dip. Lefty Mike Montgomery will hopefully make a healthy return to the rotation in game 1. As shown, P Everett Teaford will get a shot at AAA with Montgomery's return. Didn't really show he's ready tho tonight.

A-Adv. - Wilmington: off day

* The Rocks are 29-34. A 3-gamer at the Salem Red Sox (37-27) starts Tuesday. Ivor Hodgson starts game 1.
